Your boys must get a real buzz from going for rides in the car ........nice image :cool07:

They get that it’s a special car - low, loud, fast, crazy doors and the massive wing etc helps. They don’t get why people stop and take photos of it though.

Good cause Ryan.

What a cool car, every 80's boy teenagers wet dream, me included👌!!

Whats it like in reality, my old man brought one home once from a local car dealer, scary, fast as shit, I recall as a young bloke, but I do remember it being very basic & hot though.

Totally bonkers ride, its ace.

Thanks.  It has pretty ordinary vision, everything else great. Easier clutch than my old 3.3 930, fantastic steering at anything other than walking pace, gated shifter (which rocks), excellent ride. Can get a little hot in the cabin as the windows don’t come down far, but mine has cold a/c. 
 

A mate came with me this morning and constantly remarked how much better it was than he had expected, especially from a ride, comfort and handling perspective. 
 

Ps. I’m hoping to improve the forward vision a little but dropping the seat a little lower.  The rearward vision I’ll just have to live with...

I’m hoping to employ one of these guys part time for all reverse parking situations.

Yep. In the privacy of my own garage. Actually pretty effective.

New to market?  Similar price as a recently sold Torana A9X??? 
Know which I’d prefer to have in the garage.....

Yea, the Torana :)

I'm not really a fan of the Anniversary's styling, but if it was an older Lambo like Ryan's it might be a different story.

I am with you (maybe not on the Torana ;) ), Horatio really messed up a beautiful car.
